FG asks Aviation Unions To Shelve Planned Strike


The Federal Government has appealed to aviation unions to shelve their plans for a strike over the deduction of 50  per cent of the internal revenue of aviation agencies. 


In a memo dated August 14, the unions comprising the National Union of Air Transport Employees (NUATE), the Air Transport Services Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (ATSSSAN), the Association of Nigeria Aviation Professionals (ANAP), the National Association of Aircraft Pilots and Engineers (NAAPE), and the Amalgamated Union of Public Corporation Civil Service Technical and Recreation Services Employees (AUPCTRE) had threatened to strike.


They had threatened to stop work on August 21 as a protest over the Federal Government’s deduction of 50 percent of internally generated revenues (IGR) of aviation agencies.


But the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development Festus Keyamo has appealed to them to shelve the planned strike.


Keyamo in a statement he signed on Friday, assured the workers’ unions and other stakeholders in the sector that President Bola Tinubu is “very concerned about the improvement of the Aviation sector and will give their demands due consideration with the goal of finding a lasting solution that balances both the fiscal needs of the government and the operational requirements of the Aviation Agencies”.
